That's a rather vague question...relative to what?
If you mean that you back up to a disk storage pool and then
migrate to tape, perhaps the easiest approach is to use
Query Content on the disk volumes to see whether the files
are still there.
If you mean whether the files are in TSM storage pools at all,
perform the appropriate dsmc Query Archive or dsmc Query Backup
from the client, as the most straight-forward method.
